UV Light

Use these UV (Ultraviolet) lights for close examination of the crime scene to reveal evidence not visible under normal lighting to the naked eye. Evidence can't hide from UV light. UV lights reveal hidden blood, fingerprints, fibers, and subcutaneous bruises on living and dead bodies.

Orange viewing goggles are sometimes used with UV lights to enhance the contrast of fluorescent fingerprint powder and to visualize fibers and body fluids. You can add orange goggles by selecting them from the pulldown menu beneath the product photo on this page.

This light is available in three wavelengths:

Blue 400nm (21 LED)

Standard 385nm (9 LED)

Invisible 365nm (5 Cree LED.)

Choose the wavelength using the pull-down menu. Most people will want the 400nm. The difference between the lights is:

The 365nm light has less visible light and more UV light than the 385nm light. It is useful for forensics. Protective eyewear must be worn. This light has an additional white light on the handle end of the unit.

The 385nm light is useful for hunting scorpions, urine and demonstrations of UV. Since it has considerable invisible UV light, it is often used with orange goggles to assist in visualizing stains. Protective eyewear should be worn.

The 400nm light has the least UV and most visible light. The 400nm light is useful for hunting scorpions, urine and demonstrations of UV. No goggles are needed. Protective eyewear should be worn.

New product: We now have a forensic light which emits a blue beam that works very well with our orange goggles. If you watch TV you've seen this personal alternate light in use. This forensic blue LED provides hands-free lighting for locating body fluids and in crime scene fingerprint processing when using fluorescent powders. Details Here

I bought a UV light to find sperm stains on hotel bed spreads. These work, but you probably don't want to know about the sperm in hotels. Its everywhere.

I wonder who saw semen stains WITHOUT using a filter with this baby?? Physiological fluids reflect light at a different wavelength and that's why the filter is needed. You would probably see the stains anyway.
